What is the usage of the 'context' entry in the MANIFEST.MF in the RRC 4.0.1?


Werner Schmidt (112) | asked Jan 16 '13, 9:38 a.m.

Does anyone know something about the RRC 4.0.1 (used by RPE 1.1.2.2) MANIFEST.MF content?

We migrated from CLM 3.0.1.1 up to CLM 4.0.1 and got new MANIFEST.MF entries, especially the

'context' is new (it has possible entries: view, module, collection, review).

Do these affect the report templates that can be chosen while generating a report?

To be specific, I would like to make a report about modules.

Hi Werner,
 This is correct, 'context' states in which context the report is going to be displayed on the Report Wizard.
If you want to create a report that only is displayed on the module context (meaning it's compatible just with modules information) you should use the 'context=module', if your report is also compatible or you want to use it in other context like collection, just add it to the list 'context=module, collection'

You can now choose where you want your reports to be displayed :-)

This page needs to be updated:

I had to search the forums here to find out what "context" meant.
